Gas
detection
instruments
are
potential
life-saving
devices.
Recognizing
this
fact,
RESPO
Products
recommends
that
a
functional
("bump")
test
be
performed
on
every
instrument
prior
to each days
use. A
functional
test is
defined as a
brief
exposure of
the monitor
to a known
concentration
of gas(es)
for the
purpose of
verifying
sensor and
alarm
operation
and is not
intended to
be a measure
of the
accuracy of
the
instrument.
